Just after half past ten last night, three masked men entered the building on the Balheary Road and tied up the security man on duty.
The three men loaded the Rhino heads and horns from the building into a large white van before fleeing the scene.
Shortly before midnight the security man managed to free himself and contact the Gardai.
Nigel Monaghan, Keeper with the Natural History Division of the museum, says this was a targeted robbery
